  • In this 12-minute TEDx talk, artist and roboticist Ken Goldberg explains why robots are still klutzy and shows some of the surprising things they are starting to learn....We have microwaves, lasers, and cellphones: where are the robots? Computers and AI have advanced significantly, but here is why we still don't have robots that can do our chores.
    Ken is an American artist, writer, inventor, and researcher in the field of robotics and automation. He is professor and chair of the research department at the University of California, Berkeley, and holds the William S. Floyd Jr. Distinguished Chair in Engineering at Berkeley, with joint appointments in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences (EECS), Art Practice, and the School of Information. Goldberg also holds an appointment in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of California, San Francisco.
    Goldberg and his students have published over 170 peer-reviewed technical papers on algorithms for Robotics, Automation, and social information filtering. Goldberg leads the UC Berkeley Automation Sciences Lab, which pursues research in Cloud Robotics and Automation, Social Information Retrieval using geometric algorithms, and Algorithmic Automation for Feeding, Fixturing, Grasping, with an emphasis on geometric algorithms that minimize sensing and actuation.
    In his PhD dissertation, Goldberg developed the first algorithm for orienting (feeding) polygonal parts and proved that the algorithm can be used to orient any part up to rotational symmetry. He also patented the kinematically yielding gripper, a new robot gripper that complies passively to hold parts securely without sensing. Goldberg is Co- Founder and editor-in-chief of the IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering. His research has resulted in eight United States patents.

    Something that has changed in our lifetime is that scientists have become much more engaging and entertaining.

    Excellent info about robots giving us an idea where we are actually standing on! Thank you so much for the excellent information and video!

    I always thought that “Rosie”, the robot for the Jetsons was a most capable version. But then I also thought Astro was better than Scooby Do.

    I believe not only should we have robot butlers but we should have robot EVERYTHING. Robots can easily do things without getting stressed, tired, etc despite the fact that they don't have feelings. People would have FULL control of their lives and work wouldn't get in the way. I'm 100% positive that robots making money for humans would really benefit everyone's mental health and well being

      You enjoy 1 day off work... But what about 10? Work is good for us... Life is not supposed to be easy. If it were too easy easy would become hard. We have more free time than any generation in human kind history and that's part of why these mental health issues are arising (we as humans have not learned how to manage our mental states). Just like we must exercise to achieve good physical fitness we must (meditate, spend time in nature, etc) to achieve good mental fitness.

    I imagine a doctor's robot. He will do all things what human can't do. After 50 or 70 years it can be possible they can treat humans better that human doctor. And AI would be tremendously helpful for them.
    Robots can be philosophers, an economist , teacher, , maybe be they can run our country better that humans

    If it is easy for us, why would we want robots to do it for us?
    The things I don't want to have to do are deep-sea mining, reloading nuclear reactors, performing brain resections.
    I'm fine with packing my shopping and folding my laundry - it really doesn't take that long.

      No, man, it's not crazy to not want robots.

    Marketing people completely out of control. No, you wont have a home robot butler in your lifetime. Stop implying we will. I have been waiting for my flying car for 50 years, and that is technically much easier to do.

    • @kairi99roxas
      @kairi99roxas 4 месяца назад

      flying cars would take so much more fuel and therefore much more expensive, that's one of the main reasons we don't have them yet. (Very rich people have private jets)

      We’ll have home robots within 10 years, possibly 5. And they’ll cost about the same as a car. Look up Tesla’s Optimus Gen 2 or Figure’s robot. They can learn from watching and have tactile touch allowing them to fold washing, handle eggs and make a coffee.

    • @PhillipBell
      @PhillipBell 4 месяца назад +1

      @saschapercuoco as a Tesla owner myself, and yes, I use full self-drive regularly, have you ever seen a Tesla product released anywhere near on-time? Do you expect it even five years after Musk does? Wishful thinking. Tesla and Space-X work because they are great products built on existing ideas, namely cars and rockets. A humanoid robot actually in your home is something completely new to society (outside of science fiction). It will fail. The next company that does it will also fail. And the next. It will take several decades and many failures before people even accept the idea. After that, the tech will be a failure. Something as far-sighted as this will take a very long time coming, both in terms of technology and societal acceptance.
